THE STOOP: A Pair of Skis, A Guidebook for Women to Understand Men and a Stuffed Animal

Our weekly round up of Brooklyn stoop items.

This week of stoop searching was a good week for bookworms.

We found textbooks on chemistry, welding, business and investment. 

We also found guidebooks for love and marriage.

“What Really Works with Men,” by A. Justin Sterling, is appropriate for Valentine’s Day coming up. If there is anyone who needs advice, pick it up and start reading!

Another appropriate read for Park Slope as a family neighborhood was, “The First Year of Marriage” by Miriam Arond and Samuel L. Pauker, M.D.

This book helps newlyweds with what to expect, “what to accept” and what you, as a spouse, can change.

Expecting two-and-a-half inches of snow, a Sloper left out a pair of skis. It would have been a great gift for a snow bunny, and one they could have used in the park this afternoon, but unfortunately the snow didn’t stick. So the skier will have to wait to use them. 

Keep the stoop items coming!

What was your greatest find? Let us know in the comments.

About this column: As you may know, many Park Slope residents put their unwanted belongings out on their stoop so a passerby can pick it up and make it their own. This column explores those items and you decide if one person's junk or is another’s treasure. Related Topics: Recycling and The Stoop
